flowers
in shades of love
blooming in every thin
crevice of a heart's device and
bereft
bereft
of its color
fragrance and gorgeousness
a rose is but like crumpled waned
paper!
Paper!
Words written, words
said; both cut deep as do
words both carelessly and fully
pondered.
pondered
whole night and day
the clouds covered the sky
and all in it like a shroud set
on dead
on dead
memories grow
new ideas, new thoughts,
new philosophies to take us
higher
higher
up in the sky
there are heaven and hell
wonder what made god keep them
so far
so far
over oceans
and round about the poles
this massive earthscape twirling through
the days
the days
belong to you
you own the nights as well
it's my poor heart that you disown
stealing
stealing
away the light
moon-shadows creeping ever
closer to horizon's sharp edge
delayed
delayed
flight of love took
off for the moon with the
speed of light until it landed
safely
safely
guided through the
harrowing shallows of
the everglades, watching out for
'gators
gators
and crocodiles
have spiny backs not fit
for riding on;get on the horse
and flee!
and flee!
I wait for thee
to help you free your need
your wants and your desires I grant
thank me
thank me
in the morning
when the sun has risen
and your eyes are still glowing with
desire
desire
is a tricky
thing to shackle. it has
a tendency of eluding
these chains.
